[Solved]-How to use highcharts with angular 5?-Highcharts

with usage of official highcharts module only (w/o angular2-highcharts and other and even @types/highcharts)

npm install --save-dev highcharts

import * as hc from 'highcharts';
...
export class maincomponent implements oninit, afterviewinit {
...
ngafterviewinit() {
  let chartoptions = {
  ...
    chart: {
      renderto: 'chartpanel', // need to have div #chartpanel in template
      ...
    }
  }
  this.chartinstance = new hc.chart(chartoptions);
}

this.chartinstance will have all highcharts methods like addseries, reflow, redraw etc.

primeng charts can be an alternative. http://www.primefaces.org/primeng/

try this approach without need of 3rd party library.

import {component} from 'angular2/core';

declare var jquery:any;

@component({
    selector: 'my-chart',
    template: `<div style="width:60%" id="container"></div>`
})
export class appcomponent {

            },
            series: this.data
        });
    }
}

and put down this to index.html

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.2.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://code.highcharts.com/highcharts.js"></script>

or try this module http://ngmodules.org/modules/angular2-highcharts, if you need to handle on point select event.

i didn't tested yet but highcharts has its official angular library which seems to be actively maintained.

as of october 2018:

angular-highcharts is the new kid on the block and has overtaken angular2-highcharts in popularity.

angular-highcharts is an angular directive based implementation of highcharts and attow requires angular 7 (which was released very recently)

i have no affiliation to either library.

added this to package.json:

"angular2-highcharts": "^0.3.3",
"highcharts": "^5.0.0",

added this on main.module.ts file:

import { chartmodule } from 'angular2-highcharts';

added this on main.module.ts in @ngmodule imports section

imports: [ // import angular's modules    
    chartmodule
],

added this in vendor.ts file:

//angular2-highcharts
import { highcharts } from 'angular2-highcharts';
require('highcharts/highcharts-more')(highcharts);
require('highcharts/modules/solid-gauge')(highcharts);

added this on the chart.component.ts file

import { highcharts } from 'angular2-highcharts';

declare this on inside the chart.component class code:

options: highchartsoptions;
chartdata: any = [];

add this code in the method that binds the data to the chart:

this.options = {
      chart: { type: 'spline' },
      title : { text : 'chart' },
      xaxis: {
          type: 'datetime'
      },
      series: [{
        name: "name",
        data: this.chartdata
      }]
    };

added this on the chart.component.html page:

<div>
      <chart [options]="options"></chart>
    </div>

to install this library, install peer dependencies first:

$ npm install --save highcharts@^4.2.1

also, make sure you install the typings for highcharts:

$ npm install @types/highcharts --save

then, install this library running:

$ npm install --save ng2-highcharts

app.module

import { ng2highchartsmodule } from 'ng2-highcharts';

add ng2highchartsmodule to @ngmodule => imports

angular cli add this js files in script

"../node_modules/highcharts/highcharts.js",
    "../node_modules/highcharts/highcharts-more.js", 
    "../node_modules/highcharts/modules/exporting.js"

component file

import { ng2highcharts } from 'ng2-highcharts';


private chartdata = {
chart: {
  type: 'column'
},
xaxis: {
  categories: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
},
series: [
  {
    name: 'nc',
    data: [7057, 6858, 6643, 6570, 6115, 107, 31, 635, 203, 2, 2]
  }, {
    name: 'ok',
    data: [54047, 52484, 50591, 49479, 46677, 33, 156, 947, 408, 6, 2]
  }, {
    name: 'ko',
    data: [11388, 11115, 10742, 10757, 10290, 973, 914, 4054, 732, 34, 2]
  }, {
    name: 'valid',
    data: [8836, 8509, 8255, 7760, 7621, 973, 914, 4054, 732, 34, 2]
  }, {
    name: 'check',
    data: [115, 162, 150, 187, 172, 973, 914, 4054, 732, 34, 2]
  }, {
    name: 'cor',
    data: [12566, 12116, 11446, 10749, 10439, 973, 914, 4054, 732, 34, 2]
  }
]};

and the html

<div [ng2-highcharts]="chartdata"></div>

i think that you could try ng2-highchart (https://github.com/bigous/ng2-highcharts).

see this project for a sample of use: https://github.com/bigous/angular2-seed-ng2-highcharts.

i know this question is a bit stale, but is one of the first hits for angular2+highcharts queries... it's pretty simple and straight forward to get highcharts working. here is a plunker example, https://plnkr.co/edit/8ccbrp?p=preview.

here is the main logic:

import {
    component,
    elementref,
    afterviewinit,
    ondestroy,
    viewchild
} from '@angular/core';

const highcharts = require('highcharts/highcharts.src');
import 'highcharts/adapters/standalone-framework.src';

@component({
    selector: 'my-app',
    template: `
        <div>
            <div #chart></div>
        </div>
    `
})
export class appcomponent implements afterviewinit, ondestroy {
  @viewchild('chart') public chartel: elementref;

  private _chart: any;

  public ngafterviewinit() {
    let opts: any = {
        title: {
            text: 'monthly average temperature',
            x: -20 //center
        },
        xaxis: {
            categories: ['jan', 'feb', 'mar', 'apr', 'may', 'jun',
                'jul', 'aug', 'sep', 'oct', 'nov', 'dec']
        },
        series: [{
            name: 'tokyo',
            data: [
                7.0, 6.9, 9.5, 14.5, 18.2, 21.5, 25.2,
                26.5, 23.3, 18.3, 13.9, 9.6
            ]
        }]
    };

    if (this.chartel && this.chartel.nativeelement) {
        opts.chart = {
            type: 'line',
            renderto: this.chartel.nativeelement
        };

        this._chart = new highcharts.chart(opts);
    }
  }

  public ngondestroy() {
    this._chart.destroy();
  }
}
